That's pretty much what I just said, just worded differently. If rape wasn't "artistic expression" in the US, Steam wouldn't be able to sell games with rape in the US.

The amount of VN's with one of the 3 fetishes you mentioned is massive. If they can't get past Steam's review and approval, they can't be sold, and thus there's nothing to remove either.

There are games on Patreon that didn't get the approval by Steam aswell. Goes both ways.

As for AWAM; I don't even know how Steam deals with copyright infringement. AWAM has tons of illegal assets. Big brand logos, clothes, movies...Uhh..
Again, no it's not about that/those kinds of laws, it's due to age-verification, this isn't just "porn" games, games like Cyberpunk 2077, Mortal Kombat, and so on.

That sheet as well those games were ON STEAM and approved, they even had Steam pages to wish list them, there are even the links to them in that sheet, and were removed before they went on sale for some reason or another.

As for copyright, unless someone hits them with a DMCA or something of that nature, most games will replace/blur those kinds of things.

You're talking about this rule?

"Adult content that isn’t appropriately labeled and age-gated"

And there's also this one, which is what I'm talking about;

"Content that violates the laws of any jurisdiction in which it will be available"

Which is why content involving rape for example is legal in the US as it's "artistic expression". If it was illegal, Steam wouldn't be able to sell it.

Holy cow....

It has nothing to do with any of that shit. It has to do with age verification.

Clearly we're talking in different directions here. I've got no clue what age verification you're on about.

I was saying that Steam can't sell games on their platform in a country where the content inside this game is illegal in that country. That's it. Not hard to understand, right?

Doesn't matter if you're 5 or 50 if the laws in your country clearly state that you can't distribute a game depicting rape&co.

Edit: Maybe I'm just missing the big catch here. I've had a long fucking day, and I'm gonna knock myself out right now. Good night. lol

i didn't know much about boosty TOS but it doesn't seem much complicated like patreon or steam.

It’s a fake account… he’s gone to substar while he fixes his patreon issue.
It doesn't seem fake tho.. but if it is then isn't that illegal ? could get you in trouble
